Related to the questions about “new” and internationalized TLDs I’d like to ask: Do you support OpenNIC TLDs? Obviously this depends on what DNS server you use and whether you want to include support for such domains too.

That's an interesting question. I hadn't seen OpenNIC before! Looks like a cool project. I'm fairly certain we cannot issue to domains under TLDs recognized by OpenNIC but not by ICANN. Here are the relevant sections of the Baseline Requirements : Internal Name: A string of characters (not an IP a…

The practice of issuing for names that aren’t part of the Internet DNS (which would include OpenNIC and anybody else having fun making up their own names) was eliminated from the Web PKI. The October 2016 deadline was for existing certificates for such “internal” names to b…

I think you misinterpretted @rugk ’s post. As @tialaramex pointed out as a CA participating in the web PKI under the baseline requirements from the CA/Browser forum Let’s Encrypt can not support OpenNIC domains. This isn’t a Let’s Encrypt limitation but a decision made by the broader web PKI communit…

I would think it would be useful for OpenNIC to start its own CA that is name-constrained or at least publicly committed by policy to issue only for OpenNIC TLDs. Then documentation for using OpenNIC as a client could include instructions to add OpenNIC’s root certificate, not just change DNS settin…
